90% LG gram 15 review

The LG gram 15 carries out the firm’s legacy of ultra-light, large-screen laptops with style and impressive engineering. However, there are other, more versatile options out there that do more for less and are just as stylish.

Hands-on with the new ultralight LG gram notebooks
Source: Hardware Zone English

The new LG gram lineup is impressive insofar as weight and portability are concerned. We can't think of any notebooks in their respective categories that even come close to the weight of these gram notebooks. It is all the more impressive when you consider that despite being so thin and light, LG hasn't sacrificed much in the way of usability and practicality. These notebook all have full-size USB and HDMI ports.

74% LG's ultralight Gram laptop has too many compromises
Source: Engadget English

LG’s latest 15.6-inch Gram is incredibly light, but it falls behind when it comes to itsdisplay quality. It’s ideal if you value weight above all else, but you’ll likely be better off with a slightly heavier competitor.

Intel HD Graphics 620: Integrated GPU (GT2) found on some Kaby-Lake CPU models (15 W ULV series). Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards. » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
7500U: Kaby-Lake based SoC with two CPU cores clocked at 2.7 to 3.5 GHz, HyperThreading and manufactured with an improved 14nm process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
